Striker to spend two months with the Gas Bristol Rovers have signed Oumare Tounkara on a two month contract until the end of the season. The former Sunderland striker scored eight goals in 52 games whilst on loan with Oldham Athletic, and has been training with the club this week. The 22 year old Paris born player began his career with Ligue 2 outfit Sedan in 2008/09 and joined Sunderland in the summer of 2009. He signed for Oldham Athletic in August 2010 in a season long loan deal and enjoyed another loan spell with the League One outfit at the end of last season. He played against Rovers in both league fixtures between the clubs in the 2010/11 season. lets hope he does the business

I think there's a good chance he will play better for us than in those clips above. His body language seemed to show that he didn't feel he was part of the teams he was playing for. I reckon he will welcomed by the upmarket spirit in our club and he will play with a bit more enthusiasm.
one was a friendly and another was a reserve game. you are right sapph, i would expect better in a competitive game and i think he will love the passion from the fans. those clips i showed was just to to give you a flovour of what he looks like etc
